A Republican Swindle.

ToLEoo. Ohio, Oct. 14.-There is much
indignation over piece of political

LAMAR GETS 1T.

He Will BE Made Justice of
the Supreme Court of the United
States.
New YORK, Oct. 14.-According t.
most excellent authority, speculation
over the successorship to the seat on the
bench of the United States supreme
court, made vacant by the death of JUS
tice Woods, of Louisiana, may as well
end, for l.. Q. G. Lamar, secretary of the
interior, has been selected for the place.
Ever since Louisiana came into the
Union it has been represented in this
court. The law Of that state is. in some
respects, peculiar. 1t is the old civil
and canon law. Trials are held before
nOtarieS, and the system and customs of
legal procedure. while conforming in
general features to national conditions,
are directly descended from French
origin and retain many of fhe old pecul-
iaritieS. As Louisiana lawyers are the
only persons who are supposed to under
stand the laws of that state. it has
been the custom to keep one of them
always on the highest bench. That
explains the urgency and multiplicity
of candidates from that quarter. 1t is
felt there that the president cannot dis
regard the tradition Which his predeceS-
sors unfaiiingly observed. According
to the authority upon which the an
nOuncement of Secretary Lamar'S Sc
lection is based, the president is not
impressed with the necessity of looking
to Louisiana for new justice. He
feels that that the state will be quite as
well protected by resident of an ad-
joining state. and that Mr.. Lamar's ap-
pointment will be more widely accept
able than that of any man whom he
might choose from Louisiana. The
matter is said to have gone so far that
the appointment has been rendered 10
Mr.. Lamar. who has consented to ac-
cept it. He is already arranging his
affairs with view to the promised
change in his official position. The ap-
pointment is likely to be formally an
nounced by nomination quite early in
the session of the senate.

rHREATENING. re RETALIATE.
The Minnesota & Northwestern
Looks on With a Good Deal of


Curiosity. X
There is no doubt the other roads run
ming between st. Paul and Chicago are
very greatly disturbed by the low rate
on freight made by the Minnesota IL
Northwestern. Several meetings have
been held to see what can be done about
the matter. The special complaint now
formulated is that the Minnesota d
Northwestern is demoraliZing the Iowa
rates. The intimatiOn is now plainly
declared that unless the new road
showed more regard for the integrity of
established tariffs, retaliatOry measures
would be taken which will bring down
the net revenues of the Minnesota d
Northwestern to minimum. That road
and others, especially the Chicago d
Northwestern, say must be made to
know the difference between legitimate
and illegitimate competition. or suffer
the consequences. This is a strong
threat, but it SO happens that the Min
nesOta IL Northwestern people say they
are in position to wait with curiosity
only for this threat to be put into eXecu-
tiOn. They claim to be carrying very
great deal
MORE THAN THEIR SHARE
of the freight between ST. Paul and Chi
cago. A few days ago the GLOBE gave
a chapter of the inside history of a
meeting held in Chicago. at which res
olution was offered, the purport of
which was that all the roads agreed to
boycott the Minnesota & Northwestern
for cutting rates. it was a representa-
tive. substantially, of the Chicago d
Northwestern road that caused the de-
T feaT of that resolution. He saw at a
glace that the adoption of such resolu-
ton would throw the freight to the Min
nesota 4 Northwestern in large. This
gentleman that defeated that resolution
at the Chicago meeting was afterwards
informed by the president of the Mime
sofa & Northwestern road. that he re-
GREETED the defeat of the resolution, and
would give the other roads a check for a
thousand dollars if they would pass it,.
The greatest fear that the Minnesota d.
Northwestern has, is that they will not
boycott it.

ASHLAND, Wis, Oct. 14.-FactS have
come to light within the past twenty
four hours which go to show beyond a
doubt that the Wisconsin Central and
the Northern Pacific railroads have ar
ranged scheme whereby they can Sc
cure a clear title from the government
to the land grant between Ashland and
Superior City. The grant was made to
the old Portage, Winnebago IL Lake Su
perior railroad, now the Wisconsin Cen
trail, but as the Central has not earned
the grant (by building the road it can
not make selections according to the
provisions. The Northern Pacific grant
covers the same land, but the Central
grant is prior, and stands in the way of
the Northern Pacific making selections.
The scheme is now believed to be that
the east end of the Northern Pacific be-
tween these two points will assign its
grant and thus make the selections.
Such deal
Is MADE POSSIBLE
by the land laws. None of the land in
the congressional grant OF primary linz
its of the Northern Pacific not affected
by the Omaha grant has been selected.
The land is mostly covered with valua-
bic pine, and it is for the purpose of Sc
curing this that the railroad folks are
dealing. 1t is well-known fact that
the strip of railway between tlIis city
and Superior is not, to say the least, Il
sos,rce or much profit, and it is doubt
full if-it7eyen pays its running expenses.
ltis we'll known that the roads have
fixed all the necessary papers for con-
sohdating the lines and that the North
eIn Pacific land officers are busy en-
gagged in preparing list of the selec-
tions in the limits. Justshow much-la land
. is included in this grant is not known,
but it is safe to say it is up in the hun
dredS of thousands of dollars in value.

mittee reported section which says:
"Bipamy aud rolygamy being consid-

shall on conviction thereof be punished

There is a prov!so that the s-ct.ou shal
not be amended or in any way changed
without the approval OF Congress.
| The theory OF the friends OF the move
ment is that all government compre
hends and implies concessions OF som'
popular rights and privileges; that thi
quest ion belongs to the local. instead o
the national government; that 1t is pO'it
Ical, not religious, and that govcrhmen
lcannot treat with or make agreement
